51And when he had come to the Plains of Agosh, he gave battle unto Lib, And he smote upon him until he died; Nevertheless, the brother of Lib did come against Coriantumr in the stead thereof, And the battle became exceeding sore, in the which Coriantumr fled again before the army of the brother of Lib.52Now the name of the brother of Lib was called Shiz.53And it came to pass that Shiz pursued after Coriantumr, And he did overthrow many cities, And he did slay both women and children, And he did burn the cities thereof;54And there went a fear of Shiz throughout all the land, Yea, a cry went forth throughout the land: "Who can stand before the army of Shiz? Behold, he sweepeth the earth before him!"55And it came to pass that the people began to flock together in armies throughout all the face of the land;56 And they were divided- and a part of them fled to the army of Shiz, and a part of them fled to the army of Coriantumr.57And so great and lasting had been the war, And so long had been the scene of bloodshed and carnage, that the whole face of the land was covered with the bodies of the dead;58And so swift and speedy was the war, that there was none left to bury the dead, But they did march forth from the shedding of blood to the shedding of blood, Leaving the bodies of both men, women and children strewed upon the face of the land to become a prey to the worms of the flesh;59And the scent thereof went forth upon the face of the land, even upon all the face of the land; Wherefore, the people became troubled by day and by night because of the scent thereof.60Nevertheless, Shiz did not cease to pursue Coriantumr, For he had sworn to avenge himself upon Coriantumr of the blood of his brother which had been slain. And the word of the Lord came to Ether, that Coriantumr should not fall by the sword.61And thus we see that the Lord did visit them in the fullness of His wrath, And their wickedness and abominations had prepared a way for their everlasting destruction.
